OK.  I do have Boomer (using OpenSolaris dev repositories, currently
build snv_131)... but do I gather from the above that I don't
necessarily have to use the Boomer back-end?  so if I have trouble
with it, I ought to be able to get away with the old-fashioned OSS
one?

(Sound generally does work on the machine, including OSS4 software mixing.)
